[0.17.23] Removal Tool does not delete bear track turns when whitelisting rails

Post by thelonegoldfish »

The deletion recipe does not recognize slight turns as rail tracks. I tried to selectively delete my train system and it left a bunch of small (15-30 degree?) turns everywhere.

What happened: I set a deletion recipe to remove Rails, Signals, and Chain signals. The deletion tool removed most of the tracks and all the signals, but left alone any tracks of a certain shape (kind of long, slight turn)

version 0.17.23 build 44171, win64, steam.

Attached screenshots of the recipe and the in-progress deletion.

That's because you didn't whitelist the curves as well, NaB.

I was dragging and dropping items into the recipe from my inventory so I wouldn't even have known there was a distinction. The interface is ambiguous until you open the pick arbitrary entity menu.

Thanks for the advice though. I see the button now.
